Before becoming a Business Broker, I built a diverse background in the technology startup space, where I was involved with three companies—two of which were successfully acquired, and one that went public through an IPO. Beyond the tech world, I also co-founded and scaled a successful restaurant chain, Tandoori Oven, expanding it to six locations within just five years.

I am an entrepreneur, I understand both sides of the transaction. My focus is to have my client at ease throughout the buying and selling process. I have been a businessman for many year
